It lacks the happy ending found in the movie, but I think that gives it a more solid, heavy feeling; Holly's problems are not the kind that can be easily solved by having a great new friend, and I think the story really carries that message home: sometimes, things just are not okay in the end. That is the general feeling I got from this whole collection of stories. Sometimes, life is fucked up, and loose ends are not wrapped up. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/42282?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
